Established in 1979 by Barry Hodson, the company started out specialising in E-Type Jaguars and race car preparation.
As the reputation of the business grew and the opportunity to build, restore and service other makes of cars arose, the foundation for the present business was established.
The company now offers the following services:
Classic car complete service
Modern car servicing and repairs
Classic car repair, including any minor problems or knocks
Classic car partial or full restoration
Classic rally and race preparation
Classic car sales
Classic car insurance repairs
Current restoration projects include a 1952 Dodge Meadowbrook, a 1967 Ford Mustang, a 1904 Celer and a 1963 Sunbeam Alpine.
Racing projects have included the Caterham Seven, Lotus Cortina, Healey 3000 (all of which won their appropriate championships), Triumph TR and the 1963 Lola GT Mark 6/GT40 prototype.
Another recent project was the 1956 EJS Climax Special which Barry totally rebuilt and raced. Currently, the company is working on a 1934 Wolseley Hornet.
As a widely experienced racer as well as mechanic, Barry has built up an extensive network of contacts worldwide which enables him and his team to locate vehicles, parts and arrange imports.
The Barry Hodson Cars website contains stage-by-stage photographs of projects, as well as details of cars for sale. (www.barryhodsoncars.com)
